Can You Bake a Cake in a Micro Cooker?

kisrae · Dec 13, 2006

This is my first post. It has been great to read all your wonderful tips.
I have a guest who was talking about an item from a couple of years ago where her consultant baked a cake by just put cake ingrediants in a single pot. Could this be a discontinued item or was in the Micro cooker?
Thanks for you help

Below is the recipe for a cake in the microcooker
You can use any cake mix and frosting. Ann

CHOCOLATE VOLCANO CAKE

Ingredients:

1 Box Chocolate Cake Mix, with pudding in the mix.
1 can of chocolate frosting
Ingredients to make the cake (eggs, oil, water)
Vanilla Ice Cream (optional)

Directions:

Make cake as instructed on the back of the box.
Mix all ingredients with the Stainless/Silicone Sauce Whisk
in the Rice Cooker Plus.
After completely mixed, use the All Purpose Spreader to
take frosting out of can and put it in the center of the cake batter.
Put the lid on (NOT THE WHITE LID).
Microwave 9 – 11 minutes.
When done, carefully remove the lid, lifting away from you.
Put a large plate on top of the cooker and carefully flip it,
so the cake is on the plate. The chocolate frosting will ooze
all over the cake and down the sides.
Slice & serve.
For an added treat, use the Ice Cream Dipper and serve
with vanilla ice cream!!!

Prep Time: 2 minutes
Microwave Time: 9-11 minutes
COOKS TIPS:
· This cake should only be baked in a microwave with a built-in turntable.
· For low wattage microwaves (less than 800 watts), do not check cake for doneness before 10 minutes. The wattage information should be printed on the inside of the microwave door.
· This cake can also be microwaved in the Stoneware Fluted Pan. Microwave on HIGH 10-13 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.

Make the cake with just the cake mix and a can of diet soda. No eggs or oil. It doesnt come out rubbery like some Microwave cakes do and it is soooo moist. YOu can add the frosting if you want to. It is low fat (unless you add the frosting) and can be served with fat free cool whip and I think it is only 3-4 points per slice for Weight Watchers. I prefer the diet soda cake. I think it tastes better!

When you do diet soda cake do you leave the lid on or off the rice cooker? I left mine on and it cooked horribly

Hi there! Welcome to the group and thank you for sharing your thoughts. It's always great to hear from fellow consultants and learn from each other. As for your question about baking a cake in a single pot, it could possibly be referring to our discontinued item called the Micro-Cooker. This handy tool was great for making single serving dishes, including cakes, in the microwave. However, it's always best to double check with your guest's consultant to confirm which item they were referring to. I hope this helps and happy cooking!
